Have you ever given yourself a new name?
Or maybe a nickname?
How did you choose it?
Does it have any meaning for you?

I'm a bard myself, I should know that well enough.

[sympathyforadevil]

Yeah? Where'd you study? I'll admit I'm probably not as experienced with bardic magic as I am with other stuff but things're a bit complicated, there.

[freshtilapia]

I was mentored. I didn't go anywhere to study. But bardic art and magic are my bread and butter.

I suppose that explains why you seem to be more partial to using your blade?

[sympathyforadevil]

Yeah... The short version's that I grew up in a temple to a small-time god of music. I got trained a bit as a bard, 'cuz my dad's one, and so're a lot of people in the Seekers, but some stuff happened and I got Called as a Paladin

[freshtilapia]

Interesting. I suppose I was brought up opposite to you. I grew up with the expectation to become a fighter or hunter, but then I turned out to become a bard.

[sympathyforadevil]

i'm probably a bit lucky, there
it's not like i was expected to be a bard or something, it's more like it was something I already wanted to do, but...

eh, it's complicated

Mobile tag - just pretend this is formatted right lol

[freshtilapia]

Well, as long as you weren’t forced to be a paladin! Anyway, how have you been faring since that recent incident with the three moons?

[sympathyforadevil]

Forced? Nah. Forcing anybody into anything's not Rem's style
my oaths have a lot more to do with upholding individual liberty and casting down tyrants and shit like that

i've been okay, though. iris cycle is

rough

[freshtilapia]

You're an Iris moonblessed, too? I can absolutely relate. It's been a very rough past few days. And it's been longer than usual too, with the three moons in the sky.
